the same thing by the way, they, they had a passive resistance movement to resist the french and belgium occupation of their coal area to pay for reparation. so they told the people basically not to work, job passive resistance to, to the occupation by the french and the belgium. well, let's look at just a few of these headlines. and the last few moments here of these n days of this sort of last gasp of the legitimacy of this meritocracy. first ex afghan president, ash ghani reportedly fled country with a $169000000.00 and emerges in u a. e. course. you know, we've installed him, he was our puppet, that some of mine max's taxes that he stole. and he took there and escaped into you eat well, you know this, this is just one guy. got to steal 100. 69000000. many billions more. are also stolen by entitled people like this, like the thing tankers, like the military industrial complex, like the pmc is all of these people just plundered our taxes in the name of their marriage chop to craddick project. right. and the bankers they print the money, you know, they keep it all, essentially, the warl

, western nations, a warning of a possible i still attack. several countries including canada and belgium stopped their evacuation. sadly, because of the security concerns in the country. in other news, tyler battles it's worth crone of iris surge with more than a 1000000 infections of strange. new zealand report. more delta various cases and brazil's indigenous people fight for land. right. so waiting judgment to talk course is deliberating, a case that could end protection on some native land. and he, december to the school fee for facing growing pressure. woke up qualified as phones to in spain, in england, in refusing to lead players going, international beauty in coven hawks? ah! welcome to the news. are thousands of people hoping to leave of god, his don had been told to stay clear of cobbles, apples warning of a possible attack. now the united states, australia and the united kingdom has urge people to stay away because of what they say is an imminent threat from an iso off shoot in the country. over the course of the week, the credibility of the reporting has reached the stage whe

now, belgium has also stated is going to stop evacuation now because of the threat, the netherlands, who say we're stopping evacuation because the us is off stuff. so we understand quite a few nations are starting to wind down these evacuation efforts in the midst of the security threats and also because the us simply wants them to because everyone has to be out by tuesday. now keeping in mind, there are still many people with foreign passports. many people will be as many who are eligible to be on these evacuation flights, who are still in and around cargo. we know that about 1500 us, possible holders is still here. and yet, the usaa saying, do not come to the air force. so the strategy at the mormon seems to be the same thing. had a special mission, special forces to try to extricate these people from wherever they are, and will apply them by helicopter, or get them in somehow inside the gate. but for those who don't qualify for these extra cations, they just showing up all the people going to specific locations around ca, with buses. the leaving from seems to be a plan with the ta

partly because of the security concerns there, and i kind of stone, germany, hungary, the netherland belgium and poland all stopping their flights and speak to charlie angela. she's across all of this forth from london. charlie, i believe something like 11 british military flights were planned for thursday, and so those now and others are potentially said to continue after hearing. they're from prime minister johnson. yes, that will be some very welcome news for africans on the ground marks for relocation to the u. k. the fact that the u. k is evacuation program and time table will not be changed by these attacks. and that's because the u. k. had put in place contingency plans, they were expecting these attacks. they'd have the intelligence, they knew that they were possibly imminent. and unfortunately they were right. but 11 flights, evacuating people today and may be even someone friday the u. k. hasn't been clear on when it will have its last evacuation flight. it says it doesn't want to give a final deadline just in case it creates a stampede. the gate at the apple. but we do know that t

seen evidence of that, so we know that the last flight for the netherlands, poland, hungary, canada, belgium and denmark have left. they've wraps up their evacuation effort, and denmark has it. and so the dutch government did admit that it probably left some africans eligible for relocation behind. it just couldn't get them all on board. the canadian chief defense staff also said we left sooner than we wanted to. we wanted to rescue more people. we just couldn't, germany is wrapping up it's flights. by the end of the day, france will continue until friday. the u. k. has 11 flight leaving the country on thursday. whether or not this explosion will change that is going to be unfair. but obviously the situation inside the fort deteriorating rapidly, and most countries bringing forward that deadline for pulling out. indeed, and of course i says we're all waiting to see what contingency plans the us president has. because that will impinge on high know to nato members. also react to what's gone on at the airport so far. i mean there are, was dropping even now, charlie, from the russian news agenc

know, i have to and it didn't make it and i'm not sure if they were found across the board or in belgium where at least 40 people died. a criminal investigation has begun to find out who is responsible for failure in the warning system pretty well, not to miss all and we have nothing left, no home, no furniture, clothes. it's so hard. but i say to myself, at least i saved my child as a mother, that's the most important the river most birth, it's banks and flooded positively, ash province, including hundreds of municipalities. there was also damage on the dutch side of the board, and the town of falcon berg would estimate the costs could reach billions of dollars while the water has receded. the images of the sudden, deathly flats will remain with people forever. some expert say building better production measures won't be enough in the future. and more steps need to be taken to prevent temperatures rising. only then can people feel safe again. while it's definitely a wake up call for people to hear affected by the slots. the question now is, is it also a wakeup call for the government im

we also know that belgium and denmark last flights of already taken off, they've wrapped up the evacuation efforts and the de ms. defense ministers now saying that flying in and out of cobble apple is just not safe. so an absolute scramble for those. the last remaining countries who do have personnel that the u. k being the major ones and tele, tell us a little bit more about the new pay public's reaction to this withdrawal and how the prime minister bars johnson is handling it. well, obviously the public is very dismayed by the scenes call, black, or particularly horrifying. the footage of people wading through sewage outside the gate. the apple as they tried to get in obviously there's a lot of pressure for the u. k. to withdraw in the course manner for my son, that's just not happening. the optics are terrible and there's a lot of pressure on board students and who later on today will be doing photo opportunity out of military base, receiving flights from afghanistan. but already there are burning questions and it was all intelligence so poor that we didn't see this coming. why are we s

to, to the occupation by the french and the belgium. well, let's look at just a few of these headlines and the last few moments here of these n days of this sort of last gasp of the legitimacy of this meritocracy. first, ex afghan president, ash ghani reportedly fled country with a $169000000.00 and emerges in u a. e. course. you know, we've installed him, he was our puppet that some minor max's taxes that he stole. and he took bare and escaped into you eat well, you know this, this is just one guy. got to steal 169000000. many billions more are also stolen by entitled people like this. like the thing tankers, like the military industrial complex, like the pansies, all of these people just plundered our taxes in the name of their marriage chop to craddick project. right, and the bankers, they print the money, you know, they keep it all, essentially the warlords in america. they print bombs and they go people with it, you know, but they get money for based on the number of bombs they may manufacture. right? they get, they get paid on the

also brought forward the evacuation from other countries a little bit earlier than planned. canada belgium, the netherland denmark, poland hungry. have all ended that evacuation flights and germany's last flight took off very soon after those attacks. although they have said that they are willing to return with the medical evacuation flight to take any of those who were wounded in the attacks. norway pulled out immediately after those attacks as well. saying it's probably had to leave some norwegian citizen behind, but there was nothing that they could do. they couldn't get them through the gates of the apple. and that is the situation for number of countries from to saying it's going to continue flight until friday. it has 20 buses outside gates and they're doing their best that kids could. thank you. thank you, charlie, very much going to be back with more coverage of this story in just a couple of minutes. we know that president joe biden will be addressing the nation in an hour time to stay with us. i will see you shortly. ah, we understand the differences of cultures, the cost to move
